Question
My brother has open sores oozing pus, almost all the time. He is a namaazi but says that since the pus is impure, he cannot perform Namaaz. What should he do?
Answer
Namaaz remains obligatory on him. Since he is a ma'zoor (one who is excused), he should take wudhu for every Namaaz time and perform his Namaaz regardless of the emergence of the impurity. His wudhu will end with the expiry of the Namaaz time. For the next Namaaz he should renew wudhu. He should make qadha of all the Namaaz he has missed.
